I will address each one of your points. I am not

You said.....stated at Weedstock Sites 1 and 2 are zoned agricultural and this is an agricultural product. The "value added" zoning change request is for buildings 3,4,5 and 6 to allow processing which is currently not allowed in Canada.
The company has applied to have the Value Added Designation amended to allow for production onsite without restriction to size or employees. Buildings are not zoned, land use is zoned. I know you are making reference to the potential for non dried bud products, and that is federal correct, but regardless, the value added zoning is municipal, and falls under Section 41 of the Ontario land act.
Bill has conceded he needs the zoning amendment designation changed. He may not state it but he has applied for it.
All you need to do is email the town. I contacted the town last December and again in January. The town has said in private correspondence that the trimming, drying, sorting, packaging is value added. However, since you are not inclined to take this at face value, you can continue to espouse what Bill has said. He is wrong. In public statements this summer Mayor McBain also has stated this, citing the 6000 square feet and employee restriction. What Bill says is value added and what the town says are two different things. I am more inclined to believe the town. There are enough public statements about this made by town officials in various interviews that you should be able to locate it. If you need me to help, I am here for you.
